Not me I get noticed by people that own Corvette's and Newer Cobra's. But I noticed people with 50's notice my car more, Ive also noticed that the only people that want to race me is Fox owners, oh and the typical ricer. But I never get Camaro's, Corvette's, even Saleens or GTO's.

yeah i can imagine you get more looks, your car looks dope and stands out a lot more then a average lookin fox like mine. the only thing i have done to it looks wise is put 302 tags on the hood....

Its hard for me or my wife to drive our 87 GT around town. It seams like every pony car we see wants to race especially mustangs. Same thing happens in our 94 GT. Don't worry about people not bothering you your better off that way. If you want the attention change rims and hood or hole body kit.

put a big horse on the back window and change hoods and you will have the start of something beautiful.

Ya its true only fox bodies wave back b/c most people who drive the newer body style's are girls and older ppl.

hardly anyone waves anymore and the longer i go without a return wave the more i feel like a dufus. there arent a lot of foxes around and when i wave to people they are probably talking on their cell phone, not paying attention, arent aware of the wave tradition, or dont know that a fox is a mustang. but i will never forget the girls in the convertible that waved until their hands practically flew off

I still get a lot of people to look at my car when I drive. No one ever races except 5.0s (and a few sn95 models) only because there are only about 3-5 other 5.0s in my city (pop of around 50,000).

Now I live near a city that is full of mercedes, BMW, Lexus, etc and that town NO ONE looks at me.

So it is the crowd you drive among. Also if I had something to make my stang stand out (like exhaust, Im completly stock) then people would notice me more. The ones that don't look, are the ones that cant hear me to turn their head.....lol
